BitShares PTS (formerly ProtoShares) Mandatory Upgrade & Snapshot Announcement

[testz]

Regarding ubuntu, they are some instructions here http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=234.255 in the first few posts. on page 18

Thanks I followed that guide in the link in the link - http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=798.0 - to install Primeminer.  Will that mine Protoshares?  If so now how do install the wallet.  I'm willing to share half the coins I make in the first seven days mining on a AMD A10 6700 24/7 thanks for any help.

With Primeminer you will not be able to mine ProtoShares, please follow this thread:

Or look here for all existing pool:

I am getting maybe 1 PTS by mining for over a day. What is the total coin supply now?

I think it will reach a tipping point soon. With difficulty rising price will be nowhere near the effort spent to mine.

I get 10~12 PTS a day mining with 20 physical cores and 20 VPS cores. Before btc38.com went into maintenance mode, PTS was going for about $5.8 each. I hear on coingrounds, it goes for 0.008 BTC. Plus, don't know what the value will be once the genesis block start and all the PTS spawn 1:1 ratio of Bitshares, and what ever else spawns from PTS.

Are you saying after some changes price may even go up? I have not looked closely into bitshares and DAC.

I had mined one block solo and after that getting a very small return when I started pool mining. I am now wondering whether to sell now for almost 0.5 BTC or hold. Thats why I wanted to know what the current coin supply was.

Where did you get the impression that 1 PTS can be sold at 0.5 BTC? Really curious, because all sources I know have much lower price.

Current price is $7 per PTS
Current supply is 752,000  http://btsblock.com/chain/ProtoShares
Current market cap: $5.2 million.

I block was 50 pts, 0.01 per pts is 0.5 btc

Thanks.

I think I will hold for a sometime more and see how the price is.

My bad. I didn't notice it. To sell it at 0.01BTC will not be difficult now. How about sell a half and keep the other half to see what will happen? Then you will get 0.25 BTC in the worst case, and don't need to regret too much in the best case.

Check if you have client version 0.2.0 and add nodes: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=325261.msg3486246#msg3486246

No, you have to set a withdraw amount in your profile and they will send the coins once that threshold is met.

It doesn't cost $11 to mine 1 ProtoShare, regardless of how hard it has become at the current difficulty, it's only 11 days old with 3/8 of it's supply already mined most of which was done at low difficulty over a couple of days of what the developer wanted to be weeks. It's Also been manipulated on the exchange to drive the price up so some of the early miners and buyers can cash out for a much higher value than it cost them too acquire in the first place.

I disagree -  in principal

true the difficulty had to be raised but , to be honest the whole "Bitshare" idea in its self was not well received , so there would have been zero expectation of the sort of reception PTS has received.

but the PoW and the new Blockchain algorithm kind of changed that ,  so the market was "caught off guard ",

then the follow though , was the way in  which it has seemed to be received in China and some of the clarifications around the principals of a DAC.

i believe the price is as it is because people expect that it will be much higher as these principals further develop .

having said that , more exchanges would help price discovery .

and more pools would help more people acquire it .
